Thorns

I’m back! I apologize for the short hiatus. I’m sure you understand why I decided to stop blogging for a while, given the situation we’re in due to Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda. Conditions are still bad in central Philippines but help is starting to reach a lot of places now. Thank God. Please do keep sending your donations still. Find out how here.

For my first blog entry this week, here’s something edgy but still classy. Houndstooth, leather and studs–they’re all the right ingredients for a rock chic ensemble but because of the silhouette these pieces are in and the accessories I chose to wear, I still look feminine as ever. No groupie here!

Hype this look on Lookbook.nu here.

So what’s my favorite piece of accessory here? You’re looking at it! It’s this Boy Chanel bag I got in Hong Kong. I’ve been lusting over Boy Chanels for a looooooong time now so when I saw this unique color, I just knew I found the one. Plus the encouragement from my sister and the sales talk from the Chanel saleslady that assisted us really sealed the deal. You know how us girls get hooked by the this-is-a-special-bag-we-never-get-colors-like-this line, right? The saleslady used that on me. And it worked! LOL.

My sunnies, earrings and phone even match my bag well!! You’ll see why in the closeup shots below.

Do you see it now? My sunnies resemble my bag’s quilted design! Cute, right? These Celine Dion sunnies are available at SM Department Store’s luxury section.

Didn’t I say my phone matches my bag as well? I got this personalized case from Phoebe’s Merchandise. They make bejewelled cases for most smartphones so I got one for my latest baby. The Lenovo K900 is already as sleek as ever as it is but a little bling won’t hurt, right? For those of you who are curious if this phone is any good, I say it is. For someone who’s not used to android phones, I actually find this pretty easy to use! My favorite feature is its 13 megapixel camera of course. That and the steel design its in. It feels so expensive and classy! I thought it would be heavy at first but it’s quite light and slim. Perfect for a fashion blogger like me!

And I love your hair.. your fringe are so neat.. =D The colour of your Boy Chanel are so unique.. i never seen colour like this before.. and yes, we girls will go insane when we heard the sales person say ‘this is a special bag and you will never get colour like this’ or this is limited edition or stuff like that.. LOL!

    You look dazzling in black and white Cams! ;) Hahaha! The “we never get colors like this” at “this is the only thing we have left so buy it before someone else does” spiels always test my self-control. I loooooooove the bag! Huhuhu… sana maka buy na ako ng Chanel bag in the future! hahaha… I’m sure it will last for a very long time. Worth investing kasi classic siya. :) How do you maintain your bags so that they will look new all the time?

    • Camille Co

      Really worth investing because it’s value rises as well! :) Go for it! :) As for my bag, I just take care of it really well. Avoid getting it dirty and stuff :)

    I couldn’t figure out why you described your bag as having a “unique” colour – it’s just a black bag, no…?
    *staring* *staring* *staring*
    Then I realised that the green tint was part of the bag, not a trick of the light >.< Silly me :D

    Another black and white combo BUT it never gets old on you! You can postt a black and white combo the whole week if you want and I bet nobody would complain because we trust your styling and you make each of your ensemble look so different from the others even with the same color combo/prints etc. :) I absolutely love this classy look <3

    Ngayon palang ulit ako nakabalik ng visit sa blog mo after sinira ni Yolanda bahay namin sa isla and other thousands of houses. Though hindi ganoon karami ang nakalas na buhay tulad ng Tacloban, ginawa namang disyerto ni Yolly (Nickname basis kami. Lah eh, close eh. :D) and isla. Andaming bahay na hindi na magagawang i.repair. Rebuild ang kelangan. Pero keri lang, at least buhay ang buong pamilya ko at mga kapitbahay namin.

    Your blog is really a stress reliever, Miss. For a moment ngayon, hindi ko naalala c Yolly o ang paminsan-minsang malakas na aftershocks. Parang when I read your blog, everything is normal. Parang dati lang. Nung hindi pa nangyayari lahat. Ansakit eh. Ewan. Isang kembot pa, mababaliw na ako.

    :D Litanya na naman ako. Titigil na po. :D

    PS: Ang ganda n’yo po. :)

      Oh my… you’re so strong. I admire you! You can even joke about “Yolly”! (Nakiki-close din ako). I’m happy you guys are safe. That’s the most important thing. Don’t let the tragedy bring you down. I know it can be hard but always look forward to better and brighter things. Slowly, you’ll recover. :)

    Anything you buy from Chanel, I’m sure later on you will NEVER Regretchen Barretto! haha! It’s CHANEL! Karl Lagerfeld is such a GENIUS! I mean…all his shows are just jaw dropping! Laging super dami ng pieces from his collections. It’s as if hindi sya nauubusan ng creative juice and ideas!

      I just really save up :) Yes we do have a family business but we’re quite modest. My parents just taught me how to manage my money well so that i may enjoy the good things in life and invest in certain things :)

    Oh My.. How many phones do you use/endorse/advertise? Haha Sometimes, you affect my preference when it comes to use of mobile phone. Though Im an apple user always, pero when you describe and tell how handy and cool to use the LG phone, napapatigil ako. Oh my. Gusto ko ata yun? Haha anyway. Enjoyed your outift, as always! So mayaman looking, as always. HAHA Pretty, as always!

    Welcome back, Miss Camille!

    I thought you got a new haircut! The first photo made you look like you were sporting a cute bob with sweet-cut bangs! Then I saw your 2nd photo, and your over-the-shoulder ponytail pose, and I’m all “She totally had me fooled!” Kudos to your great hairdo! Two looks in one. :-) Hope to see one of your hair routines as a tutorial in one future post. Your tresses really show amazing volume.

    For your outfit: SUBLIME silhouettes! I thought the third photo had a “Wow!” effect. The fabric of your top spread to a new look from the first and second photos. The effect was simple, but stunning. Your skirt is a rocker girl piece. The slit is well – placed, and the stud details are eye -candy. I love how the skirt design is not too busy as to take away the attention from your top. It gives its own statement. :-)

    Your sunglasses have a very chic color tone. Great find! This particular pair made you look very Bond-Girl.

    I think your bag is also a classic example of the schoolgirl satchel type revamped for young adults. I can see your ‘Designer Camille’ vibe here because you look so professionally stylish.

    How was your trip? Can’t wait to read about your escapades! :-)
